　　We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was full of flowers inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the book-shelf. It stood outside a furniture shop.

　　“Buy it, ” she said at once.

　　“We'll carry it home on the roof-rack (車頂架). I've always wanted one like that. ”

　　What could I do? Ten minutes later I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof-rack. It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too.

As it was getting darker, I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.

　　After a time my wife said, “There's a long line of cars behind. Why don't they overtake (超車)?”

Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers (警官) inside looked at us seriously when they went past. But then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church (教堂) . One of the officers came to me.

　　“Right, sir. ” he said. “Do you need any more help now?”

　　I didn't quite understand. “Thanks officer,” I said. “You've been very kind. I live just down the road. ”

　　He was looking at our things: first at the flowers then at the bookshelf. “Well, well, ” he said and laughed. “ It's a bookshelf you've got there! We thought it was…er something else.”

　　My wife began to laugh. Suddenly, I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it's a bookshelf, but thanks again, ” I drove home as fast as I could.
